Former Rutgers lineman Anthony Davis, the starting right tackle for the San Francisco 49ers, might have given the Packers bulletin-board material on the eve of an NFC Wild Card game by insulting the Green Bay area on Twitter.

If nothing else, Davis, known for his outspokenness, has made himself a target of Packers fans on social media and probably at Lambeau Field on Sunday.

(Note: We have cleaned up Davis' tweets.)

While tweeting a photo of wrestling legend Ric Flair, who made a surprise visit to speak to the Niners, Davis tweeted that Flair "flew into this ****hole to show us some love."

(Hint: It rhymes with spithole.)

Davis followed that with "I'm honest. You know it."

When fans responded with insults of their own, Davis -- in Appleton, Wis., where visiting teams stay because of the lack of hotels in Green Bay -- fired back:

Emotionally high jacked over my opinion. lol Poise yourself. Mental Toughness/Grasp is at an all-time low here in Appleton. lol
